4 Working Principle
Products to be weighed are firstly delivered by Conveyor and fed into the
Infeed Funnel. Then it can be dispersed to Linear Feeder Pans from the vibrating
Top Cone controlled by program. The products flow thickness can be changed by

—— 10 ——

PDF 文件使用 "pdfFactory Pro" 试用版本创建 www.fineprint.cn


adjusting the height of the Infeed Funnel. Products to be weighed are distributed
evenly into each Linear Feeder Pan, stored in Feed Bucket. When Weigh Buckets
complete the previous weighing and after they are cleaned out, products to be
weighed in Feed Buckets can be fed into Weigh Buckets to prepare for next
combination. Meanwhile this machine can work with other equipments like
packaging machines or conveyor by signal communication, The work flow is
shown in Fig 4-1.

5.3.21 To set a feed times to get the target weight.
The target weight is divided into feed times to
dump products, It means each dumping weight

feed times = target weight/ “feed times”. It works for the


weight requirement that can’t reach in one
time. The range is the integer between 1 and
99, and the recommended value is 1.

5.3.22 To set a delay time from Feed Bucket starting to


open to Linear Feeder beginning to operate and
dump products into Feed Bucket. During this
period Feed Bucket should be cleaned and
closed. Its range is from 1-9999*10ms.If the
delay time is not enough (shorter than the last
fb delay
time of motor of Feed Bucket), the product will
go to weigh bucket directly or be clamped by
the door of Feed Bucket. But if too long, it will
reduce the weighing speed. you can set a
appropriate value referring to the
characteristics of product and target weight.

5.3.23 To set a delay time from Weigh Bucket starting

product at the same time. Therefore, the
combined Weigh Buckets can drop the product
to the Collection Bucket or Packing machine
according to this parameter. The range is
between 1ms and 9999×10ms.( when the
weigher works with the collection bucket, it
will open once after all products are dumped.)

5.3.29 It refers to the feeding delay of external


feeding machine (such as conveyor). When the
level sensor (or main load cell) detected no
products in the “Infeed Funnel” and sended out
the dumping signal, the conveyor received and
feed time

6.1 Program setting method

PRODUCT NO, TARGET WT, TARGET SP, FEED TIME, FEED TIMES,
FEED TIME, ACC TIMES, UP LIMIT, LOW LIMIT, these parameters
are easily set according to your actual requirement. Here are some
commonly-used methods of parameter setting.

1. MF APM,LF APM,LF ON TIME,Set the three parameters according

to the weight of Weigh Bucket. Usually, in one working cycle, if all the
weigh buckets are fed enough (according to the percentage set by NO
LOAD or 1/3 of the TARGET WEIGHT), the four ones are set
satisfactorily. If not, adjust their values according to the actual
situation. Usually, we set MF APM 45-60, LF AMP around 50, LF ON
TIME around 20-30ms.Actually, LF APM and LF ON TIME the group
parameters are connected with each other respectively. If one
increases, the other should decrease accordingly. If need bigger value,
don’t exceed 70. When the setting value is too high and works a long
time, the coil of main vibrator and linear vibrator may be burned out,
the transformer on main board will become hot which maybe shut off
the weigher.
2. Indeed Funnel is not one of the parameters,but a part of
weigher.The height of Indeed Funnel has matter with the amount of
materials on Linear Feeder Pan.The higher the Indeed Funnel the
more materials through Main Vibrator to Linear Feeder
Pan,otherwise,the less.Moderate height can greatly facilitate the user
to adjust the Main Vibrator and Linear Vibrator.
3. BIAS WT is set up to find out the deviation between display
weight and actual weight.actual wt= display WT+bias wt . In most
cases, the value of this parameter is 0 ,the display WT is accordance
with the actual WT,If not,adjust other parameters to set the bias WT

—— 51 ——

PDF 文件使用 "pdfFactory Pro" 试用版本创建 www.fineprint.cn


to 0 or Taken 50 or 100 bags from the results when weigher
weighing,calculating the average deviation between display WT and
actual WT.
4. ZERO INTERVAL, set zero time automatically according to the
material properties.If the material is non-stick,you can set the time
larger,otherwise,set time can be set smaller.The General value is 5.
5. AFC , It’s Used to set the automatic Feeder Control model. Please
refer to the next Fig 6.2.usually, we set the value of “AFC” to 0。If you

need to choose AFCT or AFCI, please read the following contents


carefully.

target NO× AFCT reset INT + AFCT limit NO →Amplitude of total

Linear Feeder Pans +1


3. Keep proper LF amplitude:
Discharged buckets number after AFCT reset INT = AFCT target NO×
AFCT reset INT + AFCT limit NO. →Amplitude of total Linear Feeder
Pans without change

------AFCI PROCESS-----

1.Adjustment for too big LF amplitude of every single


bucket:Accumulated weight in a bucket after AFCI reset INT > AFCI
single WT× AFCI reset INT + AFCI limit WT → Single linear feeder

amplitude -1
2. Adjustment for too small LF amplitude of every single bucket
Accumulated weight in a bucket after AFCI reset INT < AFCI single

WT× AFCI reset INT + AFCI limit WT → Single linear feeder amplitude

+1
3. Keeping proper LF amplitude of every single bucket
Accumulated weight in a bucket after AFCI reset INT = AFCI single

WT× AFCI reset INT + AFCI limit WT → Single linear feeder amplitude

without change
4. NO LOAD is a percentage which is set up to ensure that the total
weight of all the buckets is greater than the target weight, the rules
we set the value is: no load ≥ (1/numbers of buckets)× 100%.

Usually the value is between 10%-20%.


5.NO SELECT The value of no select is proposed to 1000 depend on
our experience.
6. FB DELAY , WB DELAY The two parameters are set according to the

—— 53 ——

PDF 文件使用 "pdfFactory Pro" 试用版本创建 www.fineprint.cn


floating of products and target weight. The setting principle is that
make sure discharging time of each segment should be less than the
delay time firstly, second set the value as small as possible based on
the first principle to high the speed of weigher. From testing many
times for different products, usually, we set fb delay wb delay to
15-20.
7. CB DELAY AFTER DELAY ,these two parameters ensure that
materials get together and not clamp the materials.On this basis,the
delay time had better be set smaller. CB DELAY and AFTER DELAY is
set according to the height between weigh bucket and collection
bucket,the speed of the weigher, the whereabouts of the material
circumstances and whether the material is easy to get together.
8. DIS DELAY TIME,DIS ON TIME,these two parameters should be set
up to observe the following rules:dis delay time + dis on time= the
total time for the products discharged into the packing machine
Usually, we set the tow value the same around 10.

9. FB MOT PATT, WB MOT PATT, CB MOT PATT , these parameters are


set in “motor pattern” within the system setting menu. These three
parameters are set in the same way,now take fb motor patt for
example.

6.2 System setting method


After entering the system setting interface, DATE SET, TIME SET, MF,
COLLECT,, LANG SET, ,DECIMAL PASSWORD1, PASSWORD2, LAMP,
TOUCH SC CAL,DISCH WAY, all they are easily set by yourself.
1.OPTIMUM,this value is set to match the actual speed.When the
actual speed is large,the value should be less.Otherwise,the value
should be larger.Normally,the value is 15.
2.UP LIMIT,the value is usual set 2.Thatmean the failure of packaging

—— 54 ——

weight should in double of that value.
3. ENFORCE, Adjusting this value can adjust the passrate and working
efficiency. Only when the residual bucket number is greater than or
equal to the value of Enforce, the enforced-dumping will be performed.
The bigger this value is, the higher the passrate is, but the slower the
efficiency is. E.g. to the 14 heads weigher, If we set Enforce to 10 and
the last combination used four heads (7,12,13,14), the coming
combination can be searched from the left 10 buckets. If the system
can’t find out the applicable combination, comparing residual buckets
number(10) to the value of Enforce (10), it’s equal that Enforced
dumping is performed (the discharged combination is most close to
Target Weight). According to the number of bucket, when the heads is
14 we usually set it to 8-10, when 10,the value is 6-8.
4. FILTER, Usually there is no need to change this value. Set it to 1-3.
5. Motor of fb , Motor of WB, Motor of CB, There are 4 patterns (0, 1,
2 and 3) to be chosen.0 is the slowest pattern,3 is the fastest pattern.
One cycle of the motor operating is divided into 20 segments (please
refer to Fig 5.6.1). The segments 1-10 control the opening of the
bucket,10-20 control the closing of the bucket. The bigger the
segment value is, the more fast the motor runs.

DIP and 2×10 I/O Cables
There are 2 sets of DIP switch on
DIP 1(2 PIN): Calibration is only enabled when both of PINs are
on
DIP 2(4 PIN): Set Weigher ID when there are more than one
Weigher connected to PC.
When it is at “ON” position (PIN is at off ,the value is 0), the value
of each PIN will be show as follow:
PIN1 value=1 PIN2 value=2 PIN3 value=4 PIN4 value=8
For example: if there are 2 weighers, set the first weigher to be
NO.1, PIN 1=ON, PIN 2=OFF, PIN 3=OFF, PIN 4=OFF; set the second
weigher to be NO.10, PIN 1=OFF, PIN 2=ON, PIN 3=OFF, PIN 4= ON
(2+8=10)

1.Explanation

Ready: multihead weigher has found the best weight to be ready


to discharge. It will output the continuous switch signal.
Product dropped: When the multihead weigher finishes the

discharge, it will send out one pulse switch signal. The
time of this signal can be set on “system setting”.
Over weight: When the system set the overweight that is over
than the requirement, it will release pulse switch signal
whose time is same as the discharge signal.
Product filling request: While requiring the discharge, the
spring signal should reach multihead weigher. It can be
pulse signal or continuous switch signal. Its style can be set
on “system setting”
Requiring to add: The level of product is less than the system
setting, the multihead weigher will give out the continuous
switch signal. Its working time can be set on “system
setting”.
Empty: When the weigher set zero or empty,it will send out a
pluse signal with the opening of collection hopper or weigh
bucket(no collection hopper)

2.Working operation: All the wire labeling “OUT” is the


bulkhead weigher output the signal. And Labeling “IN” is receiving
signal port

9 Maintenance
In order to make sure the machine running well and extend the
service life, you must do well in daily Maintenance work. Do swift off
the power before maintaining and checking. All operators must be
trained through expert course.
[1] Non-maintenance personnel do not do teardown of the machine.
[2] All the components touch with product directly should be cleaned
after daily use.
[3] Before running the machine, make sure there is nothing on the
hook of weigh buckets, and clean out the hook after working.
[4] Add edible oil on the joint of bucket every week to keep the bucket
running smoothly.
[5] Clean the dust on the machine every two months.

10 Transportation and Storage


[1] Do carefully when transporting, loading and unloading the Linear
vibrator. Inhibit to throw, chuck, collision and inversion and prevent
from the Shaking intensely and drench.
[2] Vibrator should be keep at the temperature between -10℃~40℃,
relative humidity is less than 90%. The air must not contain causticity
